Rihanna, who is basically the undisputed Met Gala queen, hosted THE after party and, to no one's surprise, absolutely dropped jaws in this second look. Rih wore a black tee paired with the world's slinkiest and most sheer skirt, which was decorated with beading and jewels. I mean...stunning.

The last time Rihanna attended the Met Gala was back in 2018 when the theme was "Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination." Remember when she gave us this Maison Margiela look complete with a papal tiara?

She didn't attend in 2019 when the theme was "Camp: Notes on Fashion," which was the last time the Met Gala was held in person. (She instead posted photos of Fenty Beauty makeup products that same night along with a shrugging emoji lol.) Now that a full three years have passed, I think it's safe to say she was ready to go all out in 2021. Rih even posted a flyer about hosting the post-gala festivities saying, "If you planning a MET Ball after party..............don't."

This is also the first year attending with her new boyfriend A$AP Rocky, who confirmed in an interview with GQ in May that she's the love of his life. (Awwww!) They might very well be the most fashionable power couple that existed. I mean, the photos don't lie.
